Spanking Stories Book Club: A Taste of Discipline by Casey McKay

This month I've been featuring books that are available through Kindle Unlimited. Today's book is A Taste of Discipline by Casey McKay. 


Blurb: Sam is a classically trained chef. She runs her kitchen like a well-oiled machine, and steam rolls anyone who gets in the way of that. She likes to be in control and has a hard time adjusting when she can't be. 

Ryan is her husband and partner. As the manager of the restaurant they own, he tries to ensure that his wife is not over working herself and not blowing up at their employees. 

They're trying to find a balance in life, love, and cooking. It just might take a little discipline. 

This book includes themes of domestic discipline, spankings, graphic sex, anal play, and more. If any of this subject matter offends you, please do not purchase this book.  


This was a fun, quick read about Sam and her husband as they try to run a restaurant together. 

Discussion questions: 

1. Can spouses work together without it causing problems? Here, Sam is the chef, but Ryan is also involved in running the business. If he's the Head of their Household, is he also the head of the business? 

2. Have you ever worked for a husband/wife combo? If so, how did that go? 

3. Sam and Ryan have quite a bit of fun in the kitchen after the restaurant is closed. I bet many of you have worked in restaurants. Confession time....what sorts of naughty things did you do? 

4. One of the issues that came up for Sam and Ryan is that she sort of got out of control, but he also lost track of paying attention to her moods to see that she was heading for a meltdown. Has this ever happened to you in real life? Does the husband's lack of attention to his wife's emotional needs reduce her culpability? 


Coming in February!

Kindle Unlimited Month: Audible.com

A Kindle Unlimited membership includes one credit per month to use at Audible.com. One thing that I've learned is that if you don't use the credit it rolls over to the next month, which is nice for those of us who tend to forget things.

And guess who has several books available on Audible.com? None other than Renee Rose. Imagine driving to work listening to one of her naughty books! Do you think your morning exercise routine might go just a bit better if could listen to The Devil of Whiskey Row or The Reddington Scandal?

Kindle Unlimited Month: Emmaline's Gamble by Casey McKay

Look what I found on Kindle Unlimited? Emmaline's Gamble by Casey McKay. This short story is part of the Ravenswood Manor series of Regency Romances that Casey has written.

Here's the blurbEmmaline grew up living a privileged life, she never had to give the presence of money a second thought, so settling into life with her hard working husband, Leo, is proving to be a bit of an adjustment. She tries to be the type of woman Leo can be proud of, but she fears her upbringing in England's upper crust has left her severely unprepared in being a proper wife. 

When Leo brought his young wife to America, far away from their life in England, he promised to take care of her and provide for her. But when Emmaline gambles away hard earned money and her impulsiveness puts her in further danger, what is a husband to do with his wayward wife? 

This book features characters from Emmaline's Groom, including a spoiled rich girl, her stern husband, spankings, graphic sex, anal play, and more. If any of this subject matter offends you, please do not purchase this book. 


This book is availalbe for purchase for $1.99 on Amazon (a bargain!) or it can be borrowed if you belong to Kindle Unlimited. To learn more about Kindle Unlimited, click here

Spanking Stories Book Club: Little Katelyn's Diary by Leena Darling

Today's book is Little Katelyn's Diary by Leena Darling. This book, like all the other books this month, is available on Kindle Unlimited. Click here to buy or borrow the book.

Blurb: Katelyn’s husband informs her that their weekends will be different from now on. He plans to dress her up in girly dresses and take extra special care of her each Saturday morning through Sunday night, and he expects her to be a most obedient little lady for him. Of course, if she’s naughty, this man of the house knows just how to handle her—by scolding her soundly and taking her over his knee for a proper spanking. 

Take a peek at Katelyn’s sooper-sekrit diary entries from her first special weekend with her loving husband John, a weekend that includes lots of cuddles, naughty shenanigans, bare bottom spankings, thorough bath times, intimate punishments, bedtime stories, and more. 





Questions for Discussion: 

1. Age play pushes people's buttons---either their "yum" button or their "yuck" button. Which category do you fall into and why? If you're a "yuck" have you read any age play or is just the idea of it problematic? 

2. This book is really a short story, about 24 pages total. Do you prefer short stories or full length novels or does it depend on your mood? 

3. The book includes diapering---because Katelyn's panties are often soaking wet from her arousal. What do you think? If you're a fan of age play, is diapering a plus for you? 

4. Many non-age play books include "bratting", which is basically pretty childish behavior. Do you think there's much difference between the two? 

5. Katelyn's husband takes complete care of her during their special weekend. If you could have a man take care of everything for you for an entire weekend, but without the age play elements, would that be appealing?

Kindle Unlimited Month: Rescued By The Spy by Patricia Green


What a thrill when I saw this book is available on Kindle Unlimited: Patricia Green's Rescued By the Spy. 

This book was featured on Spanking Stories Book Club in October. Click here to go to that discussion. 


Here's the Blurb for Rescued By The Spy 
Michael O’Malley is a spy working for the Solarian Federation, undercover in a sting operation against Jerold Laricon and his Ligeian settlement on Titan. Laricon is a man with Machiavellian social restructuring schemes and a desire for world domination. It’s a bad time for Nina Stanley, O’Malley’s old flame, to get kidnapped by Laricon. 

Muddying the waters is Michael’s need to fit in and partake of the succulent fruits of Laricon’s stratified system—including the sweet, beautiful, and willing Alyssa. Michael wants to help Nina and free Alyssa, but he also wants to crush Laricon’s unscrupulous and vicious rise to power. 

Nina is appalled by what she experiences in Ligeia at the hands of the evil Laricon. Her goal is to get out, no matter what it takes. But what if the price is Michael's life? Can she live with herself if that happens? 

Nota bene: this book includes polygyny, but is not a ménage story. The story contains dominant males, and some difficult situations. However, it is an erotic romance with a happy ending. If any of these elements offends you, this is not the book for you.

Spanking Stories Book Club: Caught & Punished by Caia Fox

This month I am featuring spanking books that are available through Kindle Unlimited. Kindle Unlimited is a program where you pay a monthly fee and then can borrow an unlimited number of books which are enrolled in the program. Not all books on Amazon are in Kindle Unlimited, but I've found enough to keep me entertained.  I am not getting a kickback from Amazon. I just like the program. You can learn more here.


One of the things I like about Kindle Unlimited is that it's a risk free way to try out new authors so when I saw Caught & Punished by Caia Fox I gave it a try. It was a fun read and I'm excited to share it with all of you. You can see more of her titles (many available on Kindle Unlimited) here.

Here's the blurb:  Love derailed by games that go too far… 
Product Details
When Paul started punishing his wife Lizzie and commanding her to obey his requests, their love life shot through the stratosphere. She loved the tone of voice he used on her and the naughty, wicked things he made her do, and his strict discipline even helped her with her writing career. She’d never been happier. 

But then their secret was discovered by his arrogant boss… 

This is the complete story of Paul and Lizzie in one volume. It's a short read at 10,000 words just right for a sexy bedtime (or anytime!) read. 

This book is not for children due to mature themes and language. If you are offended by erotic descriptions of spanking, voyeurism, exhibitionism and sex between consenting married adults, this love story is not for you. 





Here are some discussion questions: 

1. Lizzie is a writer and her husband incorporates discipline to encourage her writing. How many of you would get more writing done if there was the threat of a spanking at the end of the day? How many of you would do less, just to get the spanking? 

2. Paul and Lizzie incorporate a web-cam into their daily routine. During lunch or breaks at work, Paul would connect to Lizzie on the web-cam and order her to take off her top and bra and fondle her breasts and sometimes order to her stay that way until she'd written another 1,000 words. How might that affect your creativity? 

3. One day Paul is enjoying the Lizzie show on his phone and his nasty boss catches him...and watches. At the risk of losing his job, Paul allows his boss to watch again, without Lizzie's knowledge. What do you think? How would you feel if your husband was sharing your private performances with someone else? 

4. I don't want to give any more spoilers, but eventually Lizzie knows she's being watched by more than just Paul and it turns her on. How about you? Is exhibitionism something that turns you on? What's the appeal? 

Thanks for joining the conversation. Next week we'll be talking about Little Katelyn's Diary by Leena Darling.

Spanking Stories Book Club: A Christmas Starr for Carolyn by Mary Wehr

Welcome to 2015!

I know Christmas is over and you've put away all the decorations, but there are so many fun Christmas themed spanking stories out these days, I thought I'd feature one here. Keeping the Christmas spirit alive!

A Christmas Starr for Carolyn by Mary Wehr is part of Blushing Books 12 Naughty Days of Christmas series.

Blurb:
 Divorced, Carolyn Winters couldn’t wait for the holidays to be over. Both the joy and warmth of the season only reminded her of how alone she was in the world. When the house across the street had been sold, her first encounter with the new neighbor ended with her over his knee for a sound spanking. Nick was a firm believer in old-fashioned discipline. Carolyn had thought such a man ceased to exist in this day and age. 

Nick’s authoritative manner made Carolyn weak in the knees, but she was all too familiar with the pain of a broken heart and severed trust. Her ex-husband had seen to that. Could she trust Nick not to do the same? 

Discussion Questions: 

1. Many Christmas themed stories come out every year. Are you a fan or would you be just as happy to read a spanking romance without the holiday theme? How many Christmas books is too many? Would you like to read spanking stories based on other holidays? 

2. Carolyn, the heroine, works at the Dollar Store. What do you think about a heroine with a pretty ordinary (and possibly undesirable) job? 

3. Celia and Jim are Carolyn's friends who have an "old fashioned" marriage. There are a couple references in the story to Jim spanking Carolyn, once in the past and also that he intended to spank her when she got locked out of her house, except Nick took care of the task for him. What do you think? Would you want your husband to spank your friend? Or how would you feel about a friend's husband spanking you? 

4. This story takes place over a very short span of time, two or three days, yet Nick proposes at the end of the story. I know we all like a happy ending, but can you have a happy ever after without marriage?  

All this month I am going to be featuring books that are available through Kindle Unlimited I am not a spokesperson for Amazon and I don't get a kickback from them for promoting their services. Kindle Unlimited is a relatively new feature on Amazon so I wanted to let people know about it and they can decide for themselves whether they want to join.

Kindle Unlimited Month---Cara Bristol's Rod and Cane Society Books

The Rod & Cane Society is a creation of Cara Bristol. There are four books (number five, Reasonable Doubts, will be out January 13) in the series and three of them are available through Kindle Unlimited. If you don't know what Kindle Unlimited is, click here for my blog post about it.




False Pretenses is Rod and Cane Society Book 2

Aspiring journalist Emma Dupree needs a blockbuster story to boost her career into the big leagues. When she learns of a secret organization of men who spank, she goes undercover at the Rod and Cane Society to expose the organization and give her career a needed boost. Unbeknownst to Emma, her new boyfriend Dan Tanner is a member of the society and itches to get his hands on Emma’s bottom. When his secret comes to light, Emma will have to decide…will she choose the story… or love? 

Click here to be taken to False Pretenses on Amazon. 







The next book in the series (though each can be read as a stand alone) is Body Politics


Feminist Stephanie Gordon knows the instant she meets blind date Mark DeLuca it’s not going to work. Sure the deputy chief of police is criminally sexy, but he’s arrogant, domineering and sexist. Thank goodness after the evening ends, she’ll never have to see him again. 
A member of the Rod and Cane Society, an organization of men who spank, Mark DeLuca is attracted to Stephanie like a paddle to a well-rounded bottom. He sees beneath the shield of feminist militancy to the soft, sensitive woman she tries to hide. When she storms away in a snit, the chase is on. Can a spanko convince a diehard feminist her true strength lies in submission?

Disciplinary MeasuresLinc Ellison has reached his wit’s end. His wife’s overspending threatens to drive them into the poorhouse. Worse, he doesn’t feel he can trust Regina because of her string of broken promises. When he learns about the Rod and Cane Society, a secret organization of men who spank their wives, he decides to implement some disciplinary measures to save his marriage. 
Sure Regina shops a lot. And she’s broken some promises. But she’s trying to do better. What hurts most is that Linc no longer trusts her. So she consents to domestic discipline on a trial basis. 
Neither is prepared for the ripple effect the disciplinary measures will have on their love life.

If you were to buy these books individually, it would cost $8.97. A whole month of Kindle Unlimited is just $1.02 more.

Kindle Unlimted Month On My Blog

Kindle Unlimited is a new program on Amazon where you pay a monthly fee of $9.99 and can borrow books that are in the Kindle Unlimited program for free. You can borrow 10 books at a time, but once you return a book you can borrow another, so it's not a limit on how many you can borrow in a month, only a limit on how many you can have at a time. Just like your regular library.

Not all books on Amazon are part of Kindle Unlimited. Kindle Unlimited (KU) books have this symbol Kindle Unlimited.

I am not a spokesperson for Amazon and I don't get a kickback if you sign up, I just want to let people know about a program that I enjoy.

All of my self-published books are available on Kindle Unlimited, so I am profiting from the program, but I also am a subscriber.

With KU I can sample all sorts of different books and not feel guilty if I don't finish. I've been reading in a variety of genres---biographies, historical romance, and of course, spanking fiction.

This month I am going to feature books available through Kindle Unlimited. They are also available for sale on Amazon, if you are not a KU member.

First up---This Friday at Spanking Stories Book Club we'll be discussing A Christmas Starr for Carolyn by Mary Wehr. It's a quick read, so get your copy and join us Friday.

Spanking Stories Book Club: Getting Ready for 2015!

It's been two years since I started Spanking Stories Book Club. Originally we discussed one book per month, then switched to one per week. We've had wonderful guest hosts and many memorable discussions.

When I came up with the idea, I never imagined how popular it would become.

I haven't been around much for the last few months and I'm incredibly grateful to all the guest hosts who have kept Spanking Stories Book Club going.

I'm back and rested up and excited for 2015. I hope you are too!

But...I need some suggestions for books to read. Please help me out!

In the comments, tell me about books you've read recently that you think would make for a good discussion. Or books you haven't read (yet) but that have caught your attention.

Authors---don't be shy. If you have a new (or soon to be) release, let me know about it and include the blurb in the comments, please.
